About the Item

This antique Kazak Karachov rug is a superb example of late 19th-century Caucasian weaving, distinguished by its bold geometric medallions and brilliant natural dyes. Handwoven by tribal artisans in the Karachov region of the South Caucasus, it features the classic stepped octagonal central medallion flanked by intricate latch-hook motifs, stylized crosses, and traditional Caucasian symbols of protection. The rich brick-red field, paired with sky blue borders and ivory highlights, creates the striking color contrast that Kazak rugs are celebrated for. Its design is both powerful and harmonious, reflecting the spirit of nomadic craftsmanship and regional identity. Handspun wool and vegetable dyes have aged beautifully, imparting a warm patina and soft sheen. Despite its age, this rug retains strong pile and excellent color balance. A timeless collector’s piece, ideal for connoisseurs seeking an authentic, character-rich accent that bridges traditional and contemporary interiors.

Antique Karachopf Kazak Rug
Located in Closter, NJ
The Caucasus is the geographically-isolated mountainous region north of Persia between the Black and Caspian Seas. The diverse population of this area primarily consists of Armenians and Azeri Turks; however large groups of Georgians and Kurds also inhabit and produce rugs in this territory. The designs illustrated in these weavings are sparsely decorated with large-scale patterns of stylized flora appearing as abstract geometric elements. The impact of these designs is heightened by the usage of a limited number of contrasting primary colors. Kazak rugs are woven in the southern Caucasus in the villages between the towns of Tiflis and Erivan. This Karachopf Kazak...
